Twitter CEO Costolo Channels Intel’s Grove in Management Class

When Twitter Inc. Chief Executive Officer Dick Costolo isn’t traveling abroad or overseeing new products to compete with social-networking rival Facebook Inc., he’s often lecturing employees on the merits of good management.

At least four times a year, Costolo leads a two-day “Managing at Twitter” seminar, including role-playing difficult situations, whiteboard brainstorming and readings from former Intel Corp. CEO Andy Grove’s book “High Output Management.”
